Thought I was astute
in getting me covid jab
in health institute
by mod science lab
what better place
to stand 'gainst zeitgeist
to turn me face
'gainst self-'claimed christs
who wax livid
'gainst the vaccine
in language vivid
profanities obscene
i'd display responsibility
like Kwanzaa festivity,
self-determination
in joining the nation
so i rolled up me sleeve
like a silver-pipe ******
steeled self to receive
gave 'em carte blanche
closed me eyes tight
as i insinuate
"do your worst!
this ain't me first"
now me arm's aching
i feel so poor
my whole body's shaking
'n me shoulder's so sore
now I'm a-thinking
i was wise as a coot
in going unblinking
to health-institute!
